Genius English Translations
Els Amics de les Arts - L’home que treballa fent de gos (English Translation)
The man who dresses up as a dog at children's parties
Shakes the dust off his costume
He gets in the beaten Seat Panda, today the engine almost didn't start
And the car can never get past fourth gear
Today he's been hired by a well-to-do family from the city
Who live uptown
He stops and grabs ten euros' worth of gas (that's it for the month)
And glances at the magazines
The man who dresses up as a dog at children's parties
Always struggles to park the car
And even after doing this for so long, he still gets nervous
He knocks and waits for an answer
He interrupts the party with a cake, singing Happy Birthday
And he almost falls, but not quite
He makes stickmen out of coloured balloons, then a lightsaber
And a bear and flowers and a dinosaur
The man who dresses up as a dog at children's parties
Gestures to the woman in charge
Who invites him to have a coffee while she writes his check
They can't find anything to talk about
She grabs him by the hand and takes him to the laundry room
The children can be heard in the distance
They make love like animals between shirts and tracksuits
Socks, kisses and jackets
The man who dresses up as a dog leaves feeling like a celebrity
As he sees the father arrive
The man who dresses up as a dog makes them all happy:
Ten kids and one mother
The man who dresses up as a dog at children's parties
Has no idea what the hell is wrong with him
He turns his eyes to the rear-view mirror, the woman embraces that man
He has no trace of love
Socks, kisses and jackets
And a bear and flowers and a dinosaur
Socks, kisses and jackets
And a bear and flowers and a dinosaur
Socks, kisses and jackets
And a bear and flowers and a dinosaur
Socks, kisses and jackets
And a bear and flowers and a dinosaur
Socks, kisses and jackets
And a bear and flowers and a dinosaur
